XDDD

hesopesomeso

okay you can probably run the game and in task manager, there should be a way to see what dlls the app has loaded

failentin

I think it uses it?

hesopesomeso

No it does not!

hesopesomeso

You can see that it's the native one (located in System32 prolly)

failentin

ah yes, it loads it from System32

failentin

hmmm I remember it took me ages to set up dsound when I set up my new PC

failentin

there was something difficult but I dont remember what

hesopesomeso

Lemme see...

failentin

ah yeah i had to redownload a bunch of libraries... doesnt explain why the new dsound isnt loaded tho

hesopesomeso

You could use dependency walker to see what's up (if there is any libs you are missing)

failentin

ah good idea

failentin

that thing's just stuck on "not responding" all the time :obelul:

hesopesomeso

Oh man XD

failentin

okay got a different program running... but no idea what it tells me xD

quitesynth

Is it really that much of a problem? What about DXVK then?

quitesynth

DXVK can do wonders, for some games

quitesynth

A Hat in Time can be a stuttering mess, but DXVK (and modifying manually the config file of the game) can make it butter smooth and playable

hesopesomeso

The problem is with dsound some way or another (bad implementation?), how would DXVK help?

quitesynth

DXVK can change the graphics backend from a DirectX game to use Vulkan as renderer instead
